🎬 Media With Purpose, Creativity With Heart

At end2end TV CIC, we’re proud to be stepping into an exciting new chapter - one rooted in advanced technologies, creativity, teamwork and community.

We’re not just a company who specialises in media education. We’re a not-for-profit initiative on a mission: to empower people of all ages through meaningful experiences. From young learners to lifelong creatives, our work puts hands-on learning, wellbeing, and real-world connection at the centre of everything we do.

And as we grow as a company, we’re more committed than ever to one powerful idea: Learning is at its best when it’s practical, collaborative—and fun.

🚀 Anchored in purpose, embracing transformation

Since January 2021, end2end TV has been working alongside schools, families, and community partners to help young people, aged 7-16, discover the power of storytelling using TV & film —building confidence, developing advanced tech skills, strengthening friendships and unlocking creativity.

We wanted to share an exciting update about how our work is evolving.

As many of you know, we've been working closely with Hurstmere School for over three years to support young people during the school day. That work has meant so much to us — and we’re incredibly proud of the impact we've made together.

From offering curricular learning to lunchtime and after-school clubs and holiday workshops, a change in how we work with Hurstmere School has given us the opportunity to reflect and honestly consider our purpose, ‘our why’ and start this September with an exciting, refreshed outlook.

What’s changed?

This term marks a new chapter. We’re now operating independently, without direct school-based funding, which means we’re creating and funding our own programmes from the ground up. While this is a shift, it’s one that opens up new opportunities — to be more flexible, more creative, and even more focused on reaching young people in the ways they need most.

What this means for you?

What hasn’t changed is our commitment: we’re still here, still working side by side with schools, families, and organisations. But now, there are more possible ways to shape our programmes around the needs of the young people we serve — wherever they are.

And with our newly expanded Studio facilities, we can offer lots more exciting new opportunities!

Our aim is simple: the more income we generate, the more we can give back — through subsidised sessions, wider outreach, and support for those who need it most.

🎒 Outside the School Day: For Young Creatives (Ages 7–18)

Our popular Saturday Digital Crew, after-school clubs, and school holiday sessions give children and teens the chance to work behind the scenes and step into the spotlight.

Young learners gain real media skills—while building teamwork, confidence, and communication in a fun, supportive, safe space.

🧓 During the Day: For Lifelong Learners

As part of our expansion, we’re also welcoming adults for the first time —especially those retired or semi-retired—into our creative space. In relaxed, welcoming daytime sessions, learners can explore:

🎞️ Storytelling 📹 Filmmaking 🧑‍🎤 Green screen production 💻 Broadcast equipment and digital editing tools

Whether you're picking up a camera for the first time or rekindling a creative spark, these sessions are all about connection, curiosity, and community.

Our decision to grow our reach to include learners of all ages, will create intergenerational projects that bring people together through film, technology and creativity.

Whether you're 8 or 80, this is a place where everyone has a story to tell—and a voice that deserves to be heard.

🚐 On the Move: Bringing the Studio to You

Say hello again to our fabulous innovation: our updated and fully mobile outside broadcast unit OBU — a production control room on wheels!

With this game-changing setup, we can turn any space—a classroom, a hall, even a field—into a:

• Newsroom • Fantasy realm • Sci-fi spaceship • Time machine • Or wherever your imagination takes you!

Our mobile studio helps schools and community groups bring curriculum topics to life through unforgettable immersive experiences. And of course, schools are still welcome to visit our green screen studio in Sidcup, now featuring:

🎨 A new animation and editing suite (complete with a mural) sponsored by Aardman/Disney storyboard artist Jay Clarke, our incredible patron) and the beginning for Blue Door Animations Ltd.

🎙️A professional voiceover booth 

🎥 A multi-camera production space 

🛠️ Pro-level tools including Adobe Creative Cloud

💡 Let’s Build Something Together

This is the beginning—and we’d love for you to be part of it.

If you're:

✅ A school looking to enrich your curriculum 

✅ A young person (or parent) searching for something exciting and new 

✅ An adult or older learner ready to dive into creativity 

✅ Or someone who simply shares our values ... Let’s talk!

We believe creative learning should belong to everyone. Together, we can make that happen.

We’re not just building a fabulous studio space—we’re building confidence, curiosity, and connection through the power of creativity and tech. #CTech
